Sigh. I just redid the heels on my tall boots -TS Donatello’s(?)- from 2018ish and the first ride afterwards, one of the zippers split apart from the very bottom. I got it to reunify with beeswax and lots of work and rode again yesterday, but it split again as I took the tack cart back to the tack room. I have to fix my car’s AC and redo the house electrical panel, so new boots aren’t in the cards right now.
The source of the problem seems to be at the very base of the zipper. Has anyone had any luck in getting a zipper reunified and then sewing/ glueing it to just above the defect so the zip doesn’t go down to that part? I think I’ll still be able to get my foot in and out if I do that….
